I agree, lardman. Some accuracy or appeal to reality would be nice. I think some comic writers feel, hey, it's a comic, you can do what you want and get away with it, but just think of the writers that go the extra mile and do the research and work to create a strong base for character development and stories. Brooks seems to put more thought into this, although some of the action stretches reality like when Deep-Six outruns a torpedo, which would be faster due to its lighter mass and far less likely to run out of fuel before any equipment Deep Six is using. Sometimes I just wish writers would take a little more time to create plausible escape scenarios that are just as exciting but closer to reality.
